Thomas Cook announces Manchester-Seattle service
Thomas Cook Airlines is adding a new twice weekly service from Manchester to Seattle next summer.
Tickets are now on sale with the first flight to Seattle taking off on May 27.
It follows the recent introduction of San Francisco and the year-round service to New York JFK from Manchester.
"We are proud to be continuing our expansion to the USA by launching Seattle as a new destination next year. Our German Condor operation has served Seattle for many years and the year-round service has been really popular with our passengers", said Christoph Debus, CEO Thomas Cook Group Airline.
"We work closely with partner airlines, allowing us to connect customers to 90 destinations within the USA. Alaska Airlines, based in Seattle is an important partner offering our customers even more choice to the likes of British Columbia, Alberta, Alaska and Hawaii."
Thomas Cook said the new route underlines its commitment to Manchester Airport as ‘the long-haul hub of the North’.
